As far as I'm aware, though, they did nothing about the people who exploited early Ilum valour gains.

I'd say they'll fix this with the next patch and be done with it. They would have to ban literally thousands of people if they go down the banhammer path.

I finally clicked why some are taking issue, its the themepark mentality and rules are rules dammit! Short ppl hopping on the big ppl rides with total disregard for the sign that says "you must be this tall to hop on ride" will bring about anarchy.

Civilisation will fall unless everyone obeys every rule all the time /sarcasm

Ppl doing this way of levelling remind me of the ppl who would speed run Black talon/esselles over and over to max out social points... ie: I wish I had the patience to do these things because they are very efficient, but I dont have that patience so I just play it my way, they play it theirs... end of story (or more appropriately: Interlude).

On that note, I went from social 0 to social X in around 6 hours using the Gree Farm method today.

I have no issue with this, but I genuinely believed it wasn't possible, until I was clearly proven wrong.

Still, they probably won't patch it, the Gree event finishes next Tuesday anyways, so one more weekend like this won't hurt anyone.

Which part of "the whole double XP weekend there were full ops parties of lowbies farming every pylon on every instance 24x7 doing this" are you having a problem comprehending? It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. The people who were there until an hour ago, doing this the entire weekend, know that it works.

In fact the only Priority Transport that you can't buy with CC at level 1 is the Fleet Vanguard Vessel, because that one only has a credit price and requires 50k credits + level 50.

Apparently the only reason this didn't get fixed before is because whoever figured it out managed to convince everyone they told about it not to say anything, which is a pretty neat trick in an MMO environment. Once the crowds showed up though, it was inevitable that people were going to start posting about it. Which they did. Now your little scam is out.

Maybe they won't get around to fixing it this patch day. Or maybe they'll surprise us and they will. Either way, they do not have a history of backlash on stuff like this, so it's doubtful anyone will get banned.

A guildie got a merc from level 1 to 50 in one day at Ilum.
BW got a profit by xp boost sales, so I guess this is not a concern to them as long they are profiting.
